“Sen. Hyde-Smith gives away tainted campaign donation after Espy calls her out.”
— WLBT, 5/7/20
In case you missed it, two days ago in the middle of a local TV interview in which Mike called out Cindy Hyde-Smith for her lack of accountability, her campaign announced they’re donating the tainted contribution they received from a major figure involved in the Mississippi welfare scandal.
It goes to show that it takes someone like Mike to get Hyde-Smith to do right by Mississippians.
If you want to see Mike Espy replace our hyper-partisan opponent in the U.S. Senate, pitch in $5 now to support our campaign in this critical moment. [[link removed]]

After Mike Espy went on local news and called on Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith to return contributions she received from a key player in the Mississippi welfare scandal, her campaign announced they’ll be donating the money.

While on TV, Mike explained, “I called on Senator Hyde-Smith to show some accountability, and it took someone like me to get her to respond. I’m going to keep calling her out — because Mississippi deserves a leader who will stand up to corruption and do what's right for the people.”

Mid-way through the interview, Hyde-Smith’s campaign reached out to the reporter to let them know she’s returning the tainted contribution. But she still hasn’t spoken out publicly about the scandal or called for federal oversight over Mississippi’s TANF program.

Hyde-Smith caved to the pressure our campaign built, but Mike’s not done holding her accountable to the people of Mississippi. He’s going to continue calling her out to do the right thing and demand a federal investigation into this disgraceful fraud and embezzlement.
